  • Professional Career

    Arthur worked his entire life. As a child, he used to go to a local dairy farm and deliver milk with the farmer before he went to school. At age 13, he worked in a factory 12 hours a day, six days a week to support his parents and siblings. His older two brothers and three sisters worked in a factory too when they finished eight grade. They were all factory children. When his two older brothers entered WW I, his three older sisters were no longer at home and his father had died, so it was up to him at age twenty, to be the sole support of his widowed mother and two younger brothers and one sister. He managed to support them all and his younger siblings were able to go to high school and not have to work in a factory. He eventually became a designer of tools and this was his vocation until he finally retired at age 65. He never got to enjoy his retirement because he died one year later of heart failure.
